Answer:

Explanation:

step one just add 5/9 +7/9 since they have the same denominator then that will equal 4/3

2nd step add the 1 and 2 together since they are both whole numbers. which equals 3

3rd step 4/3 + 3/1 which equals 13/3 maybe or if the answers wants a mixed number than the answer might be 4 1/3!

I'm not quite sure but try and see if its correct! :)
